    7-Zip can do it too.

    You may not get the image files though after you extract.

    If it's a scene release, you may instead get split rar files, which you then need to extract from again, to get the image files.

    Sorry for the late reply....anyway I don't get what you mean "You may not get the image files though after you extract.

    If it's a scene release, you may instead get split rar files, which you then need to extract from again, to get the image files."

    So do you mean after I extracted the disk 1 and disk 2 I should extract them again??? I mean is this suppose to be only one cds? or is it two cds?

    Extract it and tell us what you get. There's nothing more we can say than to do it.

    Extract the contents of disc 1/2

    And with winrar (you need it)

    right click on "wbs-recv*.001." and open with -> winrar [* =1/2 for the relevant disc]

    then double click it and extract the cdi from inside the winrar screen.

    I knew it.

    Those files are a scene release that the uploader double-packed.

    Double packing is when you take an archive and archive it again--like a rar file inside of a zip file, or in this case, a split rar file inside of a folder inside of a tar file.

    Just follow Astaroth's instructions and you'll finally have your game.
